LIVE EVENT
A young engineering-focused university that has risen rapidly, with strength in materials, sustainability, and applied research.
Nanyang Technological University is considerably younger than most peer institutions in its ranking band, having grown from a technical institute into a full research university in a matter of decades.
Its output is engineering-weighted, with particular depth in materials science, sustainability, and applied artificial intelligence.
NTUitive, the university's innovation and enterprise company, manages commercialisation, incubation, and venture investment. NTU's campus hosts corporate research laboratories from multinational firms attracted by its engineering base.
Like NUS, NTU founders operate from Singapore into the wider ASEAN market.
NTU's founder output is concentrated in engineering-led ventures — materials, clean technology, robotics, and enterprise software — with graduates active across Singapore and the broader Southeast Asian market.
The Singapore investor base including Vertex, Openspace, and Wavemaker is directly accessible, alongside Temasek and government co-investment schemes designed to support deep technology commercialisation.
GCN’s global network includes millions of startups and founders and a broad community of investors, creating opportunities to discover potential connections across university communities.
